Unless you're dead, you probably know that Sony Pictures has officially pulled the theatrical release of "The Interview" following threats of terrorist action by the Sony hackers (who, according to a number of media outlets including the New York Times, have been linked to the North Korean government). Needless to say, America isn't happy about this and Hollywood especially isn't happy about this, judging by responses from a number of entertainment luminaries on Twitter. Below you can find a roundup of snap reactions to this complex, unprecedented situation by Tinseltown's elite. Judd Apatow: I think it is disgraceful that these theaters are not showing The Interview. Will they pull any movie that gets an anonymous threat now? — Judd Apatow (@JuddApatow) December 17, 2014 Jimmy Kimmel: . @JuddApatow I agree wholeheartedly. An un-American act of cowardice that validates terrorist actions and sets a terrifying precedent. — Jimmy Kimmel (@jimmykimmel) December 17, 2014 Rob Lowe: Wow.

Why He's On Our Radar: There wasn't a comedy more heartfelt and nutty at this year's Sundance Film Festival than Colin Trevorrow's "Safety Not Guaranteed." The high-concept indie charmer won over critics and audiences with its blend of sci-fi and romance, culminating in a Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award for the film's writer, Derek Connolly, and a coveted distribution deal with FilmDistrict. Folks who didn't get to attend the festival will be able to see what all the fuss is about when the film opens in select theaters this Friday. The screenplay, Connolly's first to make it to the screen, centers on three employees (Aubrey Plaza, Jake Johnson and Karan Soni) at a Seattle magazine who set out to profile the man behind a bizarre and hilarious classified ad that reads: "Wanted: Someone to go back in time with me. This is not a joke. You'lll get paid after we get back.

We've entered that time of year that is a sort of television black hole, and I can hardly imagine something that better showcases this idea than ABC's Man Up!, a show that gives the impression that the writers are running out of material before the pilot ends. A kind of shtick series (think the pilot of Cougar Town), which one imagines will be forced to "level out" before, Man Up! centers around three men who have some serious questions about their inclusion in that particular category.

Will Keen (Mather Zickel) plays Call of Duty with his friends Craig (Jake Johnson) and Kenny (Dan Fogler), and something about that fact (and his penchant for hazelnut creamer) doesn't quite translate into "man," especially when he considers that his father and grandfather both fought in wars. Well, there's also the fact, though the show won't mention it exactly, that he's rather whipped by...

Chicago – What can be said about “Man Up” that wasn’t already said about “Last Man Standing”? Neither show has the slightest shred of insight into the mind of modern man. They appear to have been conceived by network executives who hate men with a fiery passion. How else to explain the thoroughly insulting, utterly asinine portraits of masculine arrested development?

Whereas “Standing” cast Tim Allen as an aggressively ignorant family man yearning for a less enlightened yet more testosterone-fueled era, “Man Up” assembles three pathetic schlubs who represent the man-children who Allen reviles. As bad as Allen’s show is, with its stale banter and laugh track that guffaws at every single line, “Man Up” has achieved the unthinkable: it’s even worse. In fact, it’s flat out torturous.

Opening scenes are a little like first impressions: the good and bad stand out while the mediocre blend together into the background. It's been some time since a film's opening stood out. So long in fact that I can't recall a particularly memorable one in the last few years and then I sit down with a small independent film titled The Attic Door and I see an opening which, in its opening 5 minutes, mesmerized. The combination of framing, music and the confusion of the scene, seen out of context from the rest of the film, are so outstanding that it will be a long while before it dislodges itself from my mind. The same is true for the film.

Danny Daneau's film, which he co-wrote with Eric Ernst, is...
